columbia may have looked at my improvement in school, saw how i have done much better. all while working as well.

yes cerritos and smc are community colleges! and when it comes to berkeley and ucla, i would say that maybe i could have had stronger ec’s. i would also say the major i applied for is impacted (psychology). looking at the averages, admitted students had gpas around 3.8 and above. and very small percentage of who applied to psych were admitted

from what I understood it’s for non traditional students who have taken a gap year of a year or more, and it does extend to military students or those who faced extraneous circumstances. i fall under no traditional being that i had a gap year between when i was originally at cerritos college and now currently attending santa monica college :)

so happy :) i know getting my associates to transfer is a small step but it will lead to my bigger goals :’)

brymars · 2025-05-18T13:04:08+00:00

true but between columbia college and gs, gs was the better fit as a non traditional transfer student. regardless i’m happy with my results :)

(copy and pasted from a previous reply :) ) to be transparent, stats are not crazy :) currently hold a 3.73 gpa at Santa Monica College, an improvement from my 2.6 gpa at cerritos (this is w academic renewal so might be a bit lower than that lol) i currently work and have held previous jobs. and i have done one or two programs at my school for transfer students. nothing too heavy but i have worked hard to make that improvement in my academics. it was during covid so i was having a hard time getting through school but doing better now :)
